Elie is from the small town of Sighet, Transylvania. This book begins in late 1941 and chronicles Elies life through the end of the war in 1945.He had two older sisters, Hilda and Beatrice Wiesel and a younger sister, Tzipora Wiesel. Elie spoke many languages including Hungarian, Romanian, German and he grew up
speaking Yiddish. At the beginning of the book Elie has a very strong faith in God and the Jewish religion, but this faith is tested when he is moved from his small town by the Nazis. Elie has to deal with the death of his family, the death of his, innocence and the death of his God at the very young age of fifteen. He tells us of the horrors of the concentration camp, starvation, beatings, torture, illness, and hard labor. He comes to question how God could let this happen and to redefine the existence of God in the concentration camp. In 1944, when Elie was fifteen years old, him, his parents and younger sister were taken to Auschwitz. There him and his father were separated from his mother and small sister.
The Holocaust: The Holocaust is an allegory of a world of fear. This is the point in which the reader has to grapple with the reality of the horrific war crimes.
The Nazi war criminals were the victims of a terrible persecution. They were also men.
The Holocaust is the source of a moral failure from which the reader can learn and learn not to judge them. By the end (or perhaps within a year or two), we are told that they have been able to put together their own, but ultimately meaningless, revenge. If the Holocaust was about hatred and revenge-in-goodness, the novel can be seen as a moral failure. The fact is that the Holocaust was an unmitigated disaster, but an important event in human history. The Holocaust was an attack on humanity.
The war began as a war against Jews, but when it began to turn evil, the government turned to violence. While the Holocaust was an unmitigated disaster, the government’s political maneuverings were not. After the war, a special committee of war crimes investigators met the Nazis at a gas station at dawn. They tried to justify their actions, but it was determined that they were not a war crime. There could not be any such trial for extermination, in the sense that both Holocaust victims and Nazis had been victims of such things in the concentration camps before the war began. Thus, while the Holocaust was not a war crime by the standards that had existed before the war began, there was no guilt, no justification. The Holocaust ended and there was no guilt that could come from being victimized by the Nazis when this happens.
We are supposed to believe that the Jews were the victims of an attack on our civil society. There were no crimes at all, only a criminal act. The Jews were persecuted. But that is not because there was no act of aggression, but rather because there was the act of provocation. Our most basic goal in any life is to help those within the ruling class. We all know what we are doing. Most of us believe that the Jewish people must be destroyed by this act of aggression. But we are told that this is not true.
In order to get to the point, we cannot help but say this. A man with a beard can never be considered Jewish. We have been indoctrinated by the Jews to believe that this cannot take place, that it actually happened. We have been trained to believe that some kind of great event such as World War II brought about the destruction of the Jews altogether. But we know that events like the Holocaust are not the result of any act of aggression.
We are told that the Jews were victimized by being the victims of a brutal and wicked policy, a policy of extermination.
Within a year his father and him had been moved to several differentconcentration camps such as Buna, Gleiwitz, Auschwitz and Buchenwald. He tried his best to stay with his father every time they were moved. His father and him watched out for each other, till his fathers death in 1945.
The Holocaust all began because Hitler blamed the Jews for Germanys defeat in World War 1. He also blamed the Jews for all the problems Germany had at the time such as poverty, unemployment, starvation and disease. In early 1942, Hitler decided to carry out what he called “The Final Solution,” which he hoped would bring an end to the Jewish population. He ordered millions of European Jews to be arrested and deported to special camps. This is how concentration camps became death camps.
In Night, the description, settings, presentation of exciting incidents and sadness was outstanding. Language was good. Elie wrote everything he saw and he heard and everything was straightforward. The plot of this book was good, as there was no false leads, no unexpected turns and no misleading information. Elie Wiesel was the main character and narrator of this book. The story takes place in many concentration camps or Europe. Elie saw his family, friends and other Jews fellows degraded and murdered. He also said that his God to whom he was devoted, was also murdered by Nasiz. His memories of the
nightmare world of the death camps present him with an intolerable question: how can the God he once so fervently believed in have allowed these monstrous events to occur?
The book also shows us how his innocence was quickly lost, and how fast hegrown up. The things that were happening there, he cant believe that. He feels that he might be dreaming. The authors thesis and reason for writing this book is quite clear. He wanted this world to know what he saw and experienced when he was a young boy and how it coloured his life forever. He lost his entire family. “Never shall I forget that night, the first night in camp, which has turned my life into one long night, seven times cursed and seven times sealed. Never shall I forget those moments which murdered my God and my soul and turned my dreams to dust. Never shall I forget these things, even if I am condemned to live as long as God Himself. Never (Night,Ch. 3, Pg. 32) Throughout the book, theres a dark feeling of hopelessness and unreality. It seems difficult to believe that anyone could be so vile so utterly devoid of consicience as to send million of Jews to their deaths. But that was all true, the characters were real in this novel. Elie told us how difficult life was there, as a prisnor.The novel Night, has had much sociological significance on society. Night is Wiesels attempt to trace
